Peace Ridge Sanctuary’s 5k Run for the Animals

Peace Ridge Sanctuary's 5k Run for the Animals & 1 Mile Fun Walk takes place at the Northeast Equine Sanctuary on the border of Albion and Freedom, Maine. The event offers a 5k trail run (3.1 miles) and a 1-mile trail walk through a scenic landscape with enclosures and resident horses. The family-friendly day blends sport with animal welfare awareness and features optional outdoor pre-run yoga and an Animal Yoga session for kids, a vegan BBQ, sponsor tables, a raffle, and activities like corn-hole, scavenger hunts, and face painting.
